It's silly Xeios, but I don't think what they're doing is hurting anyone. Regardless, someone does need to take down Scientology, and if it's going to be them, so be it.

Katana: They're just people from 4chan. No joke. I'm assuming it's a very small number that's actually taking this seriously, though.

I find that contradictory. You say that people have the right to practice whatever religion they want, unless it's one you don't like.

Nelrith probably meant to say "Too bad Scientology isn't a religion!"

Well, the dictionary defines religion as:

re?li?gion /rɪˈlɪdʒən/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[ri-lij-uhn] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation
?noun
1. a set of beliefs concerning the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe, esp. when considered as the creation of a superhuman agency or agencies, usually involving devotional and ritual observances, and often containing a moral code governing the conduct of human affairs.
2. a specific fundamental set of beliefs and practices generally agreed upon by a number of persons or sects: the Christian religion; the Buddhist religion.
3. the body of persons adhering to a particular set of beliefs and practices: a world council of religions.
4. the life or state of a monk, nun, etc.: to enter religion.
5. the practice of religious beliefs; ritual observance of faith.
6. something one believes in and follows devotedly; a point or matter of ethics or conscience: to make a religion of fighting prejudice.

It meed those requirements (cept 4 )

Mind you, I'm not defending Scientology, just pointing out flawed arguments.

I think we're all missing the point here.

Scientology is stupid. People will figure that out later, or it will turn into a mainstream religion and people will follow it without actually knowing anything about it. Like most other religions.

Anonymous is just stupid and wants to protest something that doesn't matter and doesn't hurt anyone.

Honestly, Scientologists are just easy targets at this point.

Like nazis, Jehovah's Witnesses, emo kids, and the self-injury movement.

The reason why Anonymous is protesting is because Scientology deserves it. I know it sounds silly, but there is alot of valid information that Anonymous has digged up for them to even ponder about wasting their energy against a cult.

If any of you have done their research, Scientology is basically a religion you have to pay for in order to gain unnecessary bits of knowledge. If you don't have any money, they kick you off. Simple as that.

You don't get rich writing science fiction. If you want to get rich, you start a religion. I'd like to start a religion. That's where the money is!

- John L. Hubbard

Kinda where the "Knowledge is Free" bit came from in the video I posted.

Whenever you are against the cult, followers hide behind themselves and start pointing fingers at you saying you are some kinda child Molester. It never fails, and you can search many Youtube videos that backs up my point. You can shove it in their face all of the deep dark secrets you can muster, but it just goes in one ear and out the other for everyone. They "Act" like they respect humans, but if you are against them, you are pretty much an SP.

Never discuss Scientology with the critic. Just discuss his or her crimes, known and unknown.

- L. Ron Hubbard

And then there are many other things, Scientology pulling other videos, like the Scientology South Park video which can be viewed on Xenu.net, as well as many other things.

Now, I have done my research on what Scientology is about, its basicially a cult to further expand yourself to perfection. One way is by gaining more knowledge (So long as you have money, and I mean alot of it), and the other is by practicing their way of bettering yourself, which oh my, is quite retarded in a means that was stolen from many different factions of Disciplines.

Like Catholicism? Or almost any other mainstream religion. You have to pay money. At least you get something out of it with Scientology, instead of something like "Jesus will love you even more if you fork over 10% of your income."

If people want to pay for their religion, it's their choice, not my right to tell them they can't. It's not like they're stealing money, they're selling a product, and just because you don't like it, doesn't mean squat.

Not really, I believe the point is that Scientology should be taken down and why. We're saying our side of that.

By Bringing up other religions that have no point to the thread title? Yeah, good one. Kinda reminded me on why I wanted to take a leave of absence in the first place. Shitty and pointless debates like these.

This is a forum, Nagis. Forums are for discussion, not mindless consensus.

They're also not for drama queen posts, so please don't make any more of them.

When you post asking people for their opinions, and they don't agree with you, it does not make it a shitty and pointless debate.
